January 21Jan 21 CB Team We spend so much time critiquing, but what film do you think was the best in the MCU's Multiverse Saga?
January 21Jan 21 CB Team Guardians of the Galaxy 3, and I don't think it's particularly close tbh (although tellingly it's the one most in keeping with the Infinity Saga, ha). I'll also give a shoutout to Shang-Chi, though I didn't like the ending repeating some of the MCU's worst CGI final battle habits. Thunderbolts* and F4 were both pretty good too. No Way Home was wonderful fan service, not a great movie. The rest are somewhere from fun and fine to forgettable.
January 21Jan 21 Regardless of what James says, I think Thunderbolts*. I do very much like GOTG Vol 3, but Thunderbolts* combines some of my favourite storytelling with one of my favourite Marvel characters.
January 21Jan 21 CB Team Thunderbolts* and GOTG Vol 3 are probably tied to me... I need to watch then back to back to choose. But from the top of my head, I can't even think of a third place, because these two are miles ahead of the others.
January 21Jan 21 CB Team Guardians of the Galaxy 3 for me. Rewatched it last summer before Superman (first time since theaters) and it really resonates with me. The Rocket stuff is so emotional.No Way Home would be 1-A. GOTG 3 is probably better as just a standalone movie, but Spidey is my favorite, and I could watch that third act on a loop.
January 21Jan 21 CB Team Spider-Man No Way Home is probably my favorite, followed by Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
January 21Jan 21 CB Team Sure, there were a lot of sequels and spinoff shows, but Thunderbolts is the only project that was a natural continuation of the Infinity saga. Some characters return, but mostly focused on new characters – and especially characters who were replacements for other heroes. It also pushed all of their stories forward. It's the best one. And oddly, it's one of the few that has absolute zero ties to the multiverse (unless I'm forgetting something). Go figure...
January 21Jan 21 CB Team Mine is Guardians of the Galaxy 3. I love that movie and could watch it over and over. The entire series is probably the best in the entire MCU.

I watched it with my kids and they weren't really into it and made it hard to concentrate.
January 22Jan 22 CB Team T-bolts ⚡️ is the right answer. It’s like a twisted Avengers 1 and I dug it.
January 22Jan 22 CB Team I'll go to bat for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, it had pulp comic book energy that Marvel seldom embraces. I would hope Doomsday picks up some of the threads it left dangling, but honestly you never know

That has stuck with me since I saw it in theaters. Perfect way to set the tone for what's coming.

I love reading comics with him and Doctor Doom in it because I love the magic aspect of Marvel.
